Madam Ong Siew Yan @ Siew Tian
My sister-in-law, Ong Siew Yan, has passed away on 9 June 2009, after a short fight with brain tumour. She was 66 year-old. She had complained leg pain since early this year and was admitted to NUH hospital in Feb when she suffered a stroke. After due diagnosis, the doctor discovered there was a tumour in her brain and told us it was an aggressive malignant type.
She left behind a young 23-year daughter, Winnie Tan Yan Chong, and 2-year granddaughter, Estella Hong. Both of them will definitely need guidance and assistance from maternal relatives in the future. They are quite close to Janet Ong, one of Winnie's aunts.
Never did I expected to visit Mandai Crematorium and Columbarium within a short period of 1 year. Last year's visit was of my wife's brother-in-law. Life is so unpredictable and fragile.....

Mr Ong Beng Kiat
Beng Kiat, my wife's brother-in-law and father of Candice, had passed away on 25 June 08 due to illness and heart failure. I, together with my family, attended his wake on 26 June 08 and his funeral yesterday morning.
The cortege started around 10.20am and after a short walk behind the hearse we boarded an air-con tour bus to Mandai Crematorium. There were about 40+ relatives and friends sent Beng Kiat off. On the way to Mandai one of my nieces mentioned the journey was like a holiday trip (with family members together).
This was my first trip to Mandai Crematorium & Columbarium. The surroundings are very serene. We proceeded to Service Hall 3 to attend a short solemn memorial service followed by bidding him final farewell at Viewing Hall 3. The scene of witnessing the hearse slowly moving forward towards the funnel was very traumatic, especially with the emotional and touching hokkien hymns sang by the church choir. It brought tears to most of us, if not all.
Farewell Beng Kiat and may God be with you always.
After the ceremony we returned to Havelock Road for lunch around 12.30pm.

Little Princess is crawling at last .......
Today I witnessed my little princess crawling without any hestitation or coercion. That's great though a little bit late and I am very pleased with her growing up progress. Just wonder when she is going to show me her first front teeth..
Take note the unique style she crawls.....her left knee does not touch the ground, using her toes to push her body forward!!!
